It looks like Ice Cream Sandwich will be getting a .000001% increase on the Android distribution chart thanks to Sony. Sony has announced the availability of Android 4.0 for their Tablet S and if you happen to be a proud owner of this uniquely designed tablet, you should have the update waiting for you the next time you connect to Wi-Fi.
